New Year's Resolutions or some kind of goal setting for 2025. Not sure what to call it, but now I have them written down. I had the basics done on NYE, but in the last minute dedided to go into more details, with quarterly goals, and that took some more time.
My themes for the year will be Sustainability, Openness Advocacy, Learning and Health.

Kind of #NewYearsResolution to actually use this space. Finding that when #motherhood is a bit isolating, I can't find much digital connection in Meta-owned platforms as the amount of ads makes them unusable, and Reddit is an anxiety sinkhole.

Avoiding prolixity this year would save us much time. #NewYearsResolution
Churchill’s memo on the subject of brevity: https://policymemos.hks.harvard.edu/files/policymemos/files/churchill_memo_on_brevity.pdf?m=1602679032

My new years resolutions are to treat more of those desperate to be taken seriously* much, much less seriously and to treat more of those who don't spare a thought to appearances† much more seriously.

* The next big thing's billions in budget don't need acknowledgement. Irrelevancy can be mistaken for importance when it can pay bribes.

† The spontaneous protestor getting pilloried for acting to keep the environment and climate action on the agenda matters.

My New Years resolution is to go deep into the wilderness, commune with ancient trees, earn their trust, and become a Bog Warlock in the service of the May Queen.

I dislike big players in just about any area. I like small "mom and pop" type places. That's also true for music gear. So here are some of the "little guys" that seem worthy of support:

Feel free to share your own "small player" suggestions! I am going to try to support some of these folks by buying something from them in 2025; a check mark means I did buy something from them.

This year my New Year's resolution will be to tag my posts with hashtags more often. I can generally keep a resolution if it is small and I think about it for the weeks leading up to the date.

A great resolution would be to use alt text for images. I did that one a few years back.

If you start thinking about it within the next month or two, you'll be all ready to go for your 2025 #NewYearsResolution to be to run everything on immutable #Linux. Some of you are already halfway there without even knowing it yet.

Nineteen trips to the gym last month, and 74 ytd. Still pacing ahead for my #newyearsresolution
